Ferguson is insane, though. Cerrone is top level. This just shows how good Tony is. It's going to be difficult for anybody to deal with a guy as unorthodox as Tony who also is as durable as they come with an endless gas tank.

It was supposed to be up early next month. But, I remember reading he could knock 3 months off if he participated in some antibullying thing. Not sure if he did or not.

Ferg/Khabib just seems like a doomed fight. Been booked 3 or 4 times already and fell through because of injuries or weight issues. It's still the fight that needs to happen.

Isn’t Khabib v Poirier signed now?
Either way that’s the next fight for Khabib.

Scarface would kick that whiner khabibs ass.

I feel like it depends on how long it takes Khabib to take Tony down or how long the fight just stays on the feet anyway.

The longer it stays on the feet, it definitely favours Tony and I agree I could see Khabib getting badly busted up.

Tony should offer some interesting challenges on the ground for Khabib.

How impressed was everyone else with Cejudo last night? He's gotta be right up there amongst the P4P spots now imo.

As good as Moraes is and he is damn good, I feel like Cejudo exposed him somewhat in terms of his gas tank. Marlon is really dangerous for about a 1 round and a half or 2 rounds but then he just fades badly after that.

Cejudo did great but lord I can't stand him.

I really hope they crown a new FLW champ now instead of completely abandoning the division. For some reason they're doing Formiga/Benavidez II but it is not for the title.

It was impressive. I just can't stand Cejudo.

As far as Marlon's gas tank, I've never seen him go past the 1st round. So, I'm out sure if it's standard for him to gas after the first, or if this was a case of him being accustomed to stopping people in the first round. Moraes looks to be the better fighter while fresh. But damn, did he gas.

Cejudos performance was great but he’s a bit of an arsehole isn’t he, all that GOAT shite. He needs some more big wins for that imo.

Yeah. Homie needs to slow down. You got a while before you catch up with Jon Jones. A close fight with DJ, a controversial stoppage over TJ, and a win over Moraes doesn't make you the GOAT.

And what's up with his hitlist being made up of has-beens? Cody is on a slide, Cruz and Faber are past their prime.

Over the course of the UFC coverage (montages included), how many times did Rogan or 1 of the others declare some the GOAT? It seems everybody on the card was the greatest in some capacity :lol:

I really hate GOAT chat man in any sport. This sport is so young it’s just cringey hearing it. My opinion is that it’s not for the competitor to declare he’s the best but just get in with winning and people will call you the best. He’s a rid neck that Henry. I liked him better when he’d been humbled by DJ.
